In early August 2026, Taiwan authorities announced scheduled water supply interruptions across nine counties and major cities, including Taipei, New Taipei, Taoyuan, Taichung, Yunlin, Tainan, Kaohsiung, Yilan, and Taitung.

By late August, New Taipei City announced that five water play areas would close starting October 1 for scheduled facility maintenance and repairs. During September, these locations would operate on adjusted hours, limited to weekends and national holidays.
